This nighttime image depicts an urban scene in Samarinda, Indonesia, specifically showcasing the adjacent Ibis Hotel and Mercure Hotel buildings. In the background, on the left, stands a dark, multi-story building featuring "ibis HOTEL" illuminated in red neon text at its apex. Numerous windows across its facade emit warm orange light. To its right, slightly lower and set back, is another multi-story building prominently displaying "Mercure HOTEL" in white neon lettering. This structure also exhibits many illuminated windows with warm light, and its right vertical edge is accentuated by bright purple neon lighting. In the mid-ground, below the hotels, is a street-level area. On the far left, a lower, grey commercial building with horizontal window blinds and a partial sign (beginning with "Samarind...") is visible. Below this building, two large, brightly lit banners advertise "Philips" products, including light bulbs. Parked motorbikes are present in front of this lower building. Utility poles with multiple wires traverse the scene. Trees and green foliage are interspersed between the street level and the hotel structures. On the right side of the mid-ground, a white car, identified by its illuminated red taillights, is captured moving away from the viewer. Several street signs, with white text on dark backgrounds, are mounted on poles near the roadway. The overall environment is dark due to the night, with artificial lighting from buildings, streetlights, and vehicle lights providing illumination. No discernible individuals are clearly visible.
